I have noticed that Psycho´s teeth are very long and thin, more than the other´s teeth. I find that funny. But couldn´t teeth like that break up easy?

lf he brush and uses extra-strengthening mouthwash Actually, I don't think it would be easy for his teeth to break or crack, since he's a Toon. Remember: Toons have are different from humans. They're stronger. They have power. Something like Psycho's teeth being torn out from his mouth won't happen unless it's funny. Virtually anything violent that happens to a Toon has to rotate around one thing: Comedy. Nothing will happen unless it would appear to be funny. I'm tired and I can't think of any examples right now; Give me some time, please.

I think it's feasible for a toon to have something violent happen to them for dramatic reasons, if the story calls for it. Take for instance this Donald Duck comic book I have. He's trying to get rid of this homing pigeon Huey, Dewey, and Louie brought home, so he drives up to this dangerous mountain to dump him there. In doing so, he falls off a cliff and breaks his leg- not as a gag, but as dramatic tension. He's stuck there with a broken leg, and needs to be rescued. I can guess what you're thinking- "Donald Duck breaks his leg?" It doesn't even heal instantly or have bandages suddenly appear on it. He doesn't get any of that until the end of the story... so yeah, I do believe that a toon can get injured for drama's sake as well. Then there is of course far more serious animation like The Lion King, where characters die...
But back to Psycho's teeth- it's probably to give the impression that he's wild and untamed, and likely most of all, dangerous. Having them be thin wouldn't nessecarily make them easily breakable- a snake's teeth are like needles, but I've never heard about them breaking.

No problem, take as much as you need!
So it´s showing that the health or condition of a toon depends on the situation. Am I right with that?

Yeah, just how invulnerable a toon is largely depends on what sort of tone or mood you're going for. But if we were to have a purely classic-style toon like Roger Rabbit, it'd depend almost entirely on the comic effect. For example: If your toon character was a vampire, there'd wouldn't be much point if his/her victims never bled when he/she bit them! They might as well bite a teddy bear.
...Which makes me think of how Psycho might use those chompers. Not that he's a vampire or anything- heck no- I'm just thinking that he might bite people.
